Nearly 170 Irish companies operate in Canada and our trade has nearly doubled over the last decade.
My message to Irish business leaders in Ottawa today: we have shared ambitions and values, and together, we can unlock new opportunities on both sides of the Atlantic.
Not a good look - James Geoghegan pissed as a pirate at 6am after the farmer's party afterparty in Dublin after keeping cancer patients from their appointments most of the week. Fuel protests Ireland
Another convoy of trucks has gone in to Whitegate Refinery. Safe to say blockade is no more.
And there is the famed army “beast” tow truck.
Despite disinfo online about it - no group of troops deployed. It wasn’t used. The protestors gave their keys to Gardaí. @thejournal_ie
Not sure that Irish public know that at a time of global fossil fuel crisis IRL may turn away tankers & offer them to the global markets & that the refinery will run out of storage so again may turn away supplies. Protesters have every right to protest but not harm the country
God does not bless any conflict. Anyone who is a disciple of Christ, the Prince of Peace, is never on the side of those who once wielded the sword and today drop bombs. Military action will not create space for freedom or times of #Peace, which comes only from the patient promotion of coexistence and dialogue among peoples.
Today is the 33rd anniversary of the day the IRA bombed Warrington town centre and killed my son Tim and 3 yr old Johnathan Ball. Words can never describe how losing a child leaves a huge hole in your heart and your family. Eternal love Tim ❤️❤️
After winning a league, Munster, All-Ireland, County and Munster medal in 2025, Paul Geaney starts 2026 by kicking 8 points from the bench to win an All-Ireland semi-final.
Dingle are going to Croke Park. What a story.
Tonight, after two years with no Christmas tree in Bethlehem or anywhere in the West Bank or Gaza because of the genocide, the tree is being lit again in Bethlehem.

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.
We have people in power making broad claims around certain drugs and autism that have been continuously disproven. The degree to which those comments can undermine public health, do harm to women who are pregnant, create anxiety for parents who do have children who are autistic – is violence against the truth.
